Among a few invitations by e-mail to traditional vernissages, an image immediately caught my attention on the invite of the Fontaine Obscure. What an interesting photograph, it jumps out at you, intoxicates your mind without knowing why. Well almost, because after the first feeling and emotion, the inquisitive eye will look for other images of the series which it dissects and analyzes. It is this curiosity, a little useless; but,…
The relationship between dance and fashion began in the Renaissance period, where social dancing echoed society's values. Historically, around the 1830s-1840s Romantic era, ballerinas were becoming the epitome of beauty. Ballerinas were idealized and regarded as celebrities. Today fashion models are more so subject to these standards. Around the same time, ballroom dance culture emerged, beginning with the waltz. Social developments of the time were reflected through the movements, but…

FOG Gallery Bratislava: Dita Pepe & Eliška Sky Dita Pepe Czech 1973 (images 1-3) Dita Pepe in her artistic practice explores the vast array of possible lives and identities she could have had in parallel realities.

Lab 1930. Fotografia contemporanea Milano: Pietro Bologna , Alessandra Calò Pietro Bologna (Italy) 1972 (images 1-3) This series was born during my daily walks - a ritual that is necessary for me - in a suburb, as there are many.

The Merchant House Amsterdam: Amanda Means (1945, NY) (images 1-3) Amanda Means is celebrated for her black-and-white gelatin silver prints of palpable materiality. Means’s virtuoso light projections without a camera—made by physically shining light on the development paper—give rise to her evocative, masterly printing technique. The result is a luminous display of everyday objects, such as lightbulbs and water glasses, in an unexpected serial close-up. A 2017 Guggenheim Fellow, awarded…

We received these images and this text from Tom Gitterman about the More Avant-Garde exhibition that he is presenting in his gallery until November 2. I am always on the lookout for art that will contribute to my understanding, art that will broaden my perspective or make me feel a sense of connection. Most importantly, it needs to be distinctive enough that I want to experience it again. The exhibition…
The Apple of My Eye, 1991 This body of work uses the relationship of mother and daughter to discuss and question the different ways our society perceives women’s breasts. The perspective on the subject is autobiographical and some of the pictures are self-portraits as well as pictures of my own adolescent daughter. I’ve also included pictures from everyday life that represent some of the contexts in which we see our…
